You can only cut these trees if you have a high enough woodcutting level. You gain experience by cutting regular trees or Arrows Plus trees that you are able to cut. You get more experience for cutting Arrows Plus trees. You are notified when you can cut a new tree, but you can view your experience at any time by using the command: /arrowsplus.showxp

Once you’ve cut down an Arrows Plus tree, head over to the crafting table and make the logs into sticks. From here, you can either make bows or arrows with them.

To make bows: Use the exact same recipe as regular Minecraft bows, except, of course, replace regular sticks with the sticks you’ve gotten from the Arrows Plus tree.

To make arrows: Arrows Plus arrows use the same “shape” recipe as regular arrows, but they use ironshards instead of flint for the arrowhead and of course Arrows Plus sticks instead of regular sticks.

To craft iron shards, you must craft a hammer with the following recipe (using regular sticks!):

Place the hammer in a crafting table with an iron ingot to smash it into iron shards. A hammer cannot be damaged, so you only have to make one. (Unless you lose it)

After you’ve made your new weapons

Try them out! Be ready for the new shooting system. It is very different from regular Minecraft.

You are automatically put into “smooth camera” mode for fine-tuning your shot.

You will no longer zoom in slightly when drawing the bow string back.

Your crosshair will shake depending on how stable your bow is.

Once you fire, your arrow could be affected by wind. You may find it difficult to hit far off targets with slow arrows. Craft faster ones!

All bows and arrows have special attributes which can affect their charge-up time, speed, damage, etc.

Teleportation: You are teleported to the location where the arrow hits.

Arrow Effects:

All upper-level arrows have a natural small resistance to wind.

Standard Enhancements/Disabilities

Lightweight: Travels faster and a longer distance when shot.

Heavy: Travels slower and a shorter distance when shot. Slightly more resistant to wind.

Very Accurate: Wind does not affect the arrow.

Accurate: More resistant to wind.

Inaccurate: Less resistant to wind.

Magical Effects

Wither: Target is put under the effect of Wither.

Poison: Target is poisoned.

Slowness: Target is slowed down.

Blindness: Target is blinded.

Knockback: Target is knocked back after being struck.

Flames: Arrow catches on fire.

Explosion: Arrow explodes where it lands. It does not destroy any blocks.

Positive Special Effects

Destroy 1 Block: The arrow destroys the block it hits.

Block Penetration: The arrow can go through a few blocks and hit targets on the other side (with reduced damage).

Insta-Hit: Arrow fires extremely fast.

Negative Special Effects

Breaks on armor: Arrow cannot damage someone wearing armor.

Unreliable: Chance of breaking before being fired.

Wind Prone: Chance of being caught by wind and missing completely.

Now that there are 12 different types of arrows, how do you decide which one you want to shoot?

You can equip a stack of arrows by selecting them and right clicking them. Your bow will now use those arrows until there are no more, after which it will automatically begin to use the most powerful arrows (damage-wise).

If you do not equip arrows, the bow will automatically fire the arrow that does the most damage!!!

You can unequip a stack of arrows by right clicking on them again, or right clicking another stack of arrows.
